Soeder believes it is "naive" to believe that Russian leader Putin would change his policy should he succeeded in conquering Ukraine.

The CSU leader emphasized that he takes a clear stance on the issue.
"Mr. Kretschmer has his own (stance - ed.), which I respect. But it is radically different here," said Soeder, who also criticizes the leader of the left-wing populist party "Sarah Wagenknecht Union - Common Sense and Justice", who calls for a complete end to military aid to Kyiv.
As reported, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said the world should think about achieving peace in Ukraine, but not stop supporting Ukrainians at the same time.
